Syracuse basketball fans rejoice! Your prayers have finally been answered, Jim Boeheim will in fact experiment with man-to-man defense… during preseason exhibition. Hey, it’s a start.
Before the Orange officially kick things off vs the defending National Champion Virginia Cavaliers November 6, Syracuse will hop on a voyage over to Italy!
During that foreign trip, Syracuse basketball head coach Jim Boeheim revealed in an interview with Donna Ditota of Syracuse.com that he’s willing to experiment with man-to-man defense:
“You can’t try man-to-man if you don’t practice it. I’d never switch to man-to-man unless we were able to play good man-to-man.
